  Hi! My draft has failed to upload twice. Then when I tried to login to WordPress on my phone, I got the following error message. . .XMLRPC Fault: This account has two step authentication enabled. Please configure an application-specific password to use with this application [code 425]. Please help!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I found a link on the forum that took me right to the page to create an application-specific password. Everything is fine now. After I was able to get in, I decided to change my login password to a stronger, more secure password.

  im on wordpress.com and i tried browsing trough your suggestions but I still have no luck, the weird thing is that it worked perfectly fine before the 2 step authentication thing.
